“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” - Carl Jung
Are you experiencing repeated setbacks in your career, relationships or any other area of your life?
Are you prone to strong negative emotions like anxiety, anger etc.,?
Are you feeling that you are stuck no matter what you try?
The reason for these problems is the patterns that are running your life without your conscious awareness. Why I am saying ‘without your conscious awareness’ is that these patterns are in your subconscious mind and these were set during the first 6 years of your life or were passed down from your parents and grandparents.
Because of this, everything you have tried so far may not be yielding optimal results for you. For the same reason, popular self improvement approaches like positive thinking, using will power, Law Of Attraction, The Secret, Creative Visualization and repeating affirmations don’t work as well as you want them to. Think of it this way. Suppose there is mud in a glass of water. No matter what you add externally, the water won’t get purified. You have to employ a mechanism that gets the mud out of the water to make it pure.
All your subconscious failure patterns are held together by a storehouse of negative emotions like fear, anger, shame etc., Suppose there is a lot of suppressed anger in your subconscious mind. This anger actually wants to get out of your body-mind system by bringing you circumstances that actually make you feel very angry. Maybe you will encounter bosses who insult you no matter how right you are, thereby making you angry. Suppose you want to avoid this boss and shift to another company. Unfortunately you will encounter exactly the same kind of boss who will trigger anger in you. So until and unless, you release this anger from your subconscious mind, you will keep attracting bosses or friends or spouses who will make you angry with their behavior.
The same logic applies to other negative emotions like fear,shame etc., All your failure patterns attract situations that make you feel one of the fundamental negative emotions. I know all this looks scary to know that you can’t do anything logically with your conscious mind to escape these negative situations. I have been in the same boat for more than 10 years, repeating these failure patterns and trying to solve things logically with my conscious mind. I tried a zillion self improvement approaches and nothing actually helped. But there is hope. With the practices that I am going to teach you in this course, it is not at all difficult to heal all the subconscious patterns and negative emotions that are sabotaging your success in any area of your life.
I have been personally sharing these practices with my students over the last 10 years and they are making tremendous improvements in all the areas of their lives. But one thing I want to stress here is that you have to actually implement the practices everyday and only then will you see positive results. No amount of reading or analyzing whether they actually work will make any difference to you. But if you practice them as explained in the course, you will be astounded by the results. Wishing you all the best.

EMOTIONAL STRESS RELEASE TECHNIQUE
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this post, I will present one technique for releasing emotional stress. If you feel that your stress is not a long term pattern, you can use this technique for handling daily stresses. Though this technique is simple and doesn’t take a lot of time, it’s very powerful.
You can reprogram your autonomic nervous system to no longer set off a crisis response in the face of daily stresses. By training your nervous system to keep the blood in your forebrain, you will be more able to think clearly and cope effectively, even amid life’s ongoing pressures.
Holding a stressful memory in your mind while touching specific spots on your head, called neurovascular holding points, conditions primitive brain centers to have a composed rather than an emergency response to the memory. By resetting your nervous system in this way, the stress response cycle is not activated when the memory occurs. If you carry this out with a number of memories, the effect begins to generalize, both to other memories and to current stressors. This simple technique can not only bring greater peace of mind by keeping you from unnecessarily triggering the stress response cycle, it will help maintain and even improve your health.
Your stress reactions are physical responses. When you fall apart or emotionally “lose it,” it has more to do with physiology than psychology. This fact alone can afford you some compassion for yourself or for another. And a wonderful thing about the neurovasculars is that you don’t need to try to be positive.It’s better, in fact, to sink into the full unpleasantness of the negative feeling while holding the points. As the blood returns to your forebrain, you will feel yourself lifting out of stress. You are at the same time reconditioning your responses. Holding your neurovascular points also provides a cranial adjustment, so symptoms such as chronic headaches, neck pain, or jaw tension may spontaneously diminish.
The neurovascular holding points are situated at various spots on your head as well as three other places on your body. They affect blood circulation. By softly holding specific neurovascular points for between three to five minutes, you can increase the blood circulation to the part of the body the points affect. Two neurovascular points, called the frontal eminences-the bumps on your forehead directly above your eyes-impact blood circulation throughout the entire body (see the figure below). They are particularly valuable because by holding these points when under stress, the energy from your fingertips keeps the blood from leaving your forebrain. More important, this can draw blood back into your forebrain even after you’ve begun to “lose it.” If you cannot locate bumps on your forehead, just find the points about an inch above your eyebrows.
We actually know these points instinctively. When shocked, the hand may naturally find its way to the forehead, often with the exclamation “Oh my God.” Because they are slightly raised in most people, they are also called the frontal eminences. The next time you are hit by stress and feel overwhelmed or highly emotional
(time-3 to 5 minutes):
Lightly place your fingertips on your forehead, covering the frontal eminences, the “Oh my God” points.
Put your thumbs on your temples next to your eyes, breathing deeply.
As the blood returns to your forebrain over the next few minutes, you will find yourself beginning to think more clearly. It is that simple!

POLARIZED BREATHING (ALTERNATE NOSTRIL BREATHING) FOR BALANCING YOUR BRAIN HEMISPHERES
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Deep, rhythmic breathing has long been recommended for stress control and relaxation. Less well known is that our breathing pattern changes from one nostril to the other regularly. This ensures an ionization balance, which in turn affects the balance of calcium and phosphorus in the blood. With stress, the polarization goes off and body imbalances begin.
Research has shown that breathing through the nose cools the hypothalamus, which monitors brain chemicals that influence mood. The breathing cycle is linked to hemispheric dominance in the brain. Right nostril (left hemisphere) dominance correlates to phases of increased activity. Left nostril (right hemisphere) dominance represents rest phases. To change your mood breathe through your more congested nostril.
It has been clinically demonstrated that this technique can help balance the brain and body for relaxation and more efficient thinking.
HOW TO DO :
Close your right nostril with the help of your thumb. Breathe in through the lest nostril slowly and completely.
Now close your left nostril with the help of your little and ring fingers. Breathe out through your right nostril slowly and completely.
While keeping the left nostril closed, breathe in through the right nostril.
Now close the right nostril and breathe out through the left nostril.
Continue like this for 5 to 10 minutes.
If you want, you can keep the middle and fore fingers between your eyebrows through out the exercise.

WATER – THE #1 STRESS BUSTER AND BRAIN INTEGRATOR
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Water provides the hydration necessary to conduct the electrical impulses throughout the body, impulses that carry orders from the brain to the muscles and feedback to the brain. Without proper hydration, you’ll feel short-circuited and will trigger a stress response, even without other stressors in your life. What’s more, pure water is sensed by the brain while still in your mouth via receptors and instantly corrects the body stress created by dehydration.
Water is essential for proper lymphatic function, helping to remove waste and toxins from the body. It also allows 1,000 – 10,000 times more oxygen to bind to the blood, reducing stress on the heart and lungs. An instant brain boost, drinking lots of water heightens energy, improves concentration, mental and physical coordination and academic skills. It’s especially helpful while working with electrical machines (e.g. computers) which can negatively affect our body.
HOW : If you have no medical limitations, doctors suggest one ten-ounce glass per day for every 30 pounds of body weight and more if one is physically active or under stress. Therefore, the average 150 lb. person needs at least five glasses of water per day ( most would say 8 glasses). Caffeine and alcohol, by the way, are diuretics and you will need an extra glass of water for each cup of coffee you drink and two extra glasses for each alcoholic drink.

TEMPORAL TAP – REPROGRAMMING YOUR MIND TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The “temporal tap” is an ancient technique that recently has been rediscovered. It originally was used for pain control in the Orient, but it is also enormously effective for breaking old habits and simultaneously establishing new ones. Tapping around the temporal bone — beginning at the temples and travelling around the back side of the ear-makes the brain more receptive to learning while temporarily suspending other sensory input. By calming the part of the nervous system that fights to maintain your habits, you can more easily slip in a new habit.
In the 1970s, the founder of applied kinesiology, George Goodheart, discovered that by tapping along the cranial suture line that starts between the temporal and spenoidal bones, you can temporarily shift the mechanisms that filter sensory input. If you introduce a self-suggestion or spoken affirmation while you are tapping, your mind will be particularly receptive to it. The temporal tap is also attuned to the differences between the left and right hemispheres of the cerebral cortex. Because the brain’s left hemisphere is in most people more critical and skeptical, statements made with a negative wording are in closer accord with the way it functions and are more likely to be assimilated. Such statements are tapped into the left side of the head. Likewise, because the right hemisphere is highly receptive to favorable input, statements that are worded positively are tapped into the right side.
Begin by identifying a habit, an attitude, an automatic emotional response, or a health condition you would like to change. Describe the change you would like to bring about in a single sentence, stated as an affirmation in present time, that is, as if the desired condition already exists. It does not have to be a truth yet, but rather a statement that you would like to be a truth in the future. For instance, you might say, “Under pressure, I stay calm and centered.” It usually helps to write your statement.
Then restate it, keeping the same meaning, but with a negative wording (i.e., “no,” “not,” “never,” “don’t,” “won’t,” etc.). Thus the “calm and centered”statement may be worded negatively as “I no longer get stressed under pressure.” Notice that the meaning is still positive, even with the negative wording. Another example: “I eat for health and fitness and I enjoy my food” can be negatively worded as “I don’t eat from anxiety or compulsion.” “My fingernails are growing long and healthy” can be negatively worded as “I no longer bite my nails”
(time-about a minute):
Starting at the temple, tap the left side of your head from front to back with the three middle fingers of your left hand (see the figure below). State the negatively worded version of your statement in rhythm as you tap. Tap hard enough to feel a firm contact and a bit of a bounce. Tap from the front to the back about five times, making your statement with each pass.
Repeat the technique on the right side, tapping with your right hand, but this time using your statement in its positively worded form.
Repeat the procedure several times per day. The more you tap in the affirmation, the quicker and stronger the effect on your nervous system and your field of habit.
The temporal tap combines a variety of powerful elements, including repetition, autosuggestion, and neurological reprogramming. It affects not only the brain but also each meridian, so the message of your intention is carried to every system in your body. It is a disarmingly simple way to change many patterns that cannot be overcome by willpower alone.

BILATERAL STIMULATION FOR EMOTIONAL TRAUMA
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bilateral stimulation is the use of eye movements, tactile sensations, sounds or physical movements to stimulate the left and right hemispheres or sides of the brain. It is used to activate and integrate information from these two hemispheres.
When we activate a disturbing memory by evoking the emotions, body sensations and thoughts associated with it and then add bilateral stimulation, we begin an extraordinary free – associative process between mind and body. We can have thoughts, feelings, old memories or dreamlike fantasies that move rapidly through our awareness. As this information is processed, we often have new insights and new ways of viewing ourselves and our lives. By the end of a session, the old memories no longer feel disturbing. We naturally arrive at a place of health and wholeness.
Within each person is a natural ability to heal that is disrupted after a traumatic experience. Our body-mind has a natural information processing system that works to process and assimilate new information. We have experiences all the time that are stored for later use. However, trauma memories are processed in a different way. When we have a trauma, our information processing system is disrupted. The information is left in fragmented form, unprocessed and not stored in long-term memory. The unintegrated fragments often cause symptoms that disrupt our lives. A sound or even a smell that reminds you of the trauma can elicit a full-blown panic response. Unprocessed traumas can cause us to feel anxious and depressed and to have nightmares and trouble sleeping. Instead of feeling like the trauma happened in the past, it feels like it is alive in the present. When you have a wound, your body cannot heal until the wound has been cleared of debris. In the same way that debris inhibits our bodies’ ability to heal, a serious trauma disrupts our natural healing system. The bilateral stimulation activates our inherent information processing system and allows our minds and bodies to find their way back to wholeness.
HOW TO DO :
Rate your emotional distress on a scale of 1 to 10.
Now feel the negation emotion you are experiencing.
Simultaneously tap your left knee with your left hand and your right knee with your right hand alternatively.
You shouldn’t tap the knees simultaneously. But one after the other.
The tapping shouldn’t be too soft or too hard. But you should feel a firm contact.
Tap like this for 20 seconds and rate the intensity of the emotion on a scale of 1 to 10.
Continue the above procedure until you bring it down to 1 or 2.
BUTTERFLY HUG VARIATION :
You can tap the upper left arm with your right hand and the upper right arm with your left hand alternatively.
